John McAfee, the eccentric millionaire and founder of the anti-virus software company McAfee, Inc., is now working on a new project. The Verge reports that McAfee, in a recent speech at the San Jose McEnery Convention Center on Saturday, revealed how he aims to build a device that works so personal data cannot be accessed by the government.

"There will be no way [for the government] to tell who you are or where you are," McAfee said.

He went on to explain that the device would be localized and that the network only covers a distance of about three blocks long. Although there isn't a prototype out just yet, McAfee said that it should be done in about six months.

"We have the design in place," he added. "We're just looking for partners for development of the hardware."

The product, according to McAfee, will sell for around $100.

To an optimist, this is fantastic news. For only one Benjamin Franklin, people can re-gain their natural right to privacy.
